Ask Palin: Patriots Don't Pay Taxes?

Remember what Palin is now implying in response to Biden; paying taxes is not a patriotic duty.  Somebody needs to ask her and the potential First Dude; is it your patriotic duty to NOT pay taxes? Where are your tax returns?  If Obama wins do you advocate a tax revolt?

This should be pursued. My guess is that in trying to "cage the smoke" that McCain is trying to produce through Palin, this may be one of the more promising venues.

Palin has ties to some pretty wacky right-wing outfits up in Alaska and I imagine if we look at the platform of the Independence Party or whatever it's called, we're going to see some vituperation claiming that paying taxes is "against God's will" or something in that vein.

Just a question about the Palins' taxes....That allowance for travel they kept for staying in their own home? Is that taxable? Did they declare it as income, if so. Did they pay taxes on it, if so?
Have they released their tax returns? I am seeking info.
How can we find this out? It would be sweet to find they fudged on their taxes. "Thanks, but No Thanks," to the IRS?

Just curious.
